I swear I am reading through alllll the journals to find this answer. However, most of you use co2, and that throws things off for me.

Anyone want to help out and recommend a light for a non co2 tank?

Many thanks in advance!

marineland doublebright if you suspend it 18 inches above substrate. Check out ADA's journal. I stole this idea from him. I think somewhatshocked also has this. I have co2 on mine because I've wanted a co2 setup for a long long time lol.

I emailed current for par ratings for their satellite+ a few weeks ago but i forgot exactly what they said. It was definitely lower than the marineland doublebrights by at least 10 so that could be an option if you dont want to suspend it. try emailing them for the par values. I know 2 people had a thread recently where they got the satellite+ light but it wasn't a 36"

After an extended troll through the lighting section, and journals, I am pretty interested in the Current Satellite Freshwater LED+. Seems to fit the price/size/PAR/spectrum bill, at least for what I am doing.
